I am unable to provide any Kempton/Campton information simply because I haven't started pursuing any of the siblings of my G. Grandfather, William Johnston Rankin - yet. I forwarded your information to Eddie Kelso who is certainly related to the Kempton's and possibly to the Campton's as well. He has Faulkner's in his family and has done a great deal of research. He lives in Ireland and has been able to obtain some great information. I will email you separately. Warm regards, June Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

My g/g/grandparents were farmers in Glendavagh County Tyrone they were there from at least1856 to 1888 when he died and I can't find any family members there after that as all the children seem to have immigrated. What I can't figure is they are not on the Griffiths Valuation done 1860 The marriages of the children were in Aughnacloy Presbyterian church. I have proof from Presbyterian Historical Society that g/g/ grand dad attended this church with other family members But he is not on the valuation as either a tenant or landowner He died aged 80 on his death certificate g/g/grandmother died aged 63 They were Theophilus and Margaret McCollum 3 sons John, Alexander and Theophilus this would point to a naming pattern as 3rd son named after his father Daughters Margaret and Martha John married Hannah Hamilton of Drummond, Margaret and Theophilus all migrated to Australia, Martha remained in Ireland (or so it seems) and married Joseph Cherry Alexander my g grandfather married Sarah Sheppard and migrated to New Zealand. Sarah's mother Sarah is on Griffiths Valuation leasing 2 lots she was the widow of Benjamin Sheppard stonemason. I have never found him Anybody any clues..... I would love to hear them Patricia New Zealand

I have had the pleasure of using the National Library - Enaclann - OMS collaboration "Ask About Ireland" website and its Griffiths Valuation and the place name search tool. As Claire said, there is a problem however, and I was hoping someone out there in the netherland could help us solve it. I will use the example of my gggrandfather, Patrick McCosker (c. 1813 - 1868). It took a lot of searching to locate him mainly because of the spellings that were used. All records, and that includes my great grandmother's name, indicated that we were looking for a McCusker (and a variant that included McKuscar, but not McCosker). It further developed that we were looking for the townland of Augaronan, with a variant of Augharonan. I would probably be in the parish of Donacavey because we had an oral record of Catherine McCusker's marriage to Owen McCarroll in the Roman Catholic church in Donacavey. (The two parishes seem to break apart going to Donacavey (Fintona) and Clogher at this point), We finally located Catherine's father Patrick, but it was as a McCosker. (Just a little difference between an "O" and a "U".) And it became clear that he was a farmer living in Agharonan (another spelling "error," but made it hard to locate him). Because we had been successful in locating the McCarroll homesite in Corkhill (and we do have pictures just as it was being torn down in 1982), we wanted to see where Catherine's beginning were, now that we had finally survived the challenge of her name (she went by McCusker all of those years). The problem was that the map citation was incorrect because the western portion of the townland of Agharonan was not on sheet number 51. So I attempted to bring up various townlands, such as Garvallagh and Derrybard, in order to locate the missing western portion of the townland we were interested in, those properties or holdings, numbered 34 and 35 in the townland. But, to no avail and we still do not know just where to go from here. Regards, Jim Carroll

I don't have an exact date of birth but know that the year is probably 1902 (possibly '01 or '03). I think he was from Tyrone and went to the United States -- likely through the port of New York City -- sometime between 1926-1929. He had at least one relative there, a brother who lived in New York. I also know that James lived in Philadelphia in the early 1930's and worked at a home for incurables called Inglis House for a time. He applied for US citizenship but I don't know if her ever received it. Unfortunately I know very little else about him, except that he is a relative!
